Gundam Versus, pretty good arena game but controls feel weird, took a few matches to get used to the lack of camera controls and the right stick controlling vertical height. Some weird stuff with attacks too but that's just learning what eton mess does what tbh. Still no Big Zam.

Got Red Steel and House of the Dead Overkill for real cheap. I know what to expect from Overkill, but I've never played Red Steel before. So far it's pretty good, aiming is a little glitchy and finnicky but hopefully I've dealt with that by adjusting the sensor bar sensitivity, but as for everything else I'm enjoying it.

Finally got round to finishing FE Birthright on the plane home from Sweden the other day, now moved onto Conquest. Accidentally started it on Casual though and didn't realise till the chapter after branch of fate, couldn't be arsed starting it all again so I'm basically just going to soft reset anytime anyone dies because who actually lets permadeaths happen anyway

It still runs like crap, the load times are still pretty abysmal and there are some load in issues on top of that. Visually it holds up for the most part bar a few frame rate drops here and there which you kind of expect with the emphasis on multiple big physics interactions.
Even without those I'd agree with it being repetitive and flat out boring, it's just shallow.

Beaten Splatoon 2, got to the final boss but died several times to it, seemed very hard until I decided to grind for power eggs and upgrade my Level 1 Hero Shot to Max Level. Made the final boss so much easier and I beat it first try.

The ending, is kind of the same as the first game which feels a bit disappointing but oh well. The final boss wasn't as good imo either except for the last part.

At least we get the American DJ Octavio's lines in the English version this time around. "I remixed Callie's brain" made me chuckle
